Jimi Hendrix - Black Legacy by Corey A. Washington

This book was very enjoyable to read, although it was sad seeing just how many people took advantage of Jimi's money, fame, and business as he rose to stardom. It is well-written with an easy, flowing style. What's more, the book focuses a lot on Jimi's music, which is a big plus for music lovers. Many reviews have stated this is one of the best biographies on Jimi Hendrix, and when I read it myself, I could see why! It's extremely detailed and very, very accurate, including personal stories from people close to Jimi that I never knew of before. They are far and few in between, but really good books about Jimi do exist. They give great insight into Jimi's character, spiritual beliefs, his music, and his heart. If anyone has suggestions for more Hendrix books, feel free to write them in the comments section, because I haven't read every bio book or music book out there yet.įirst, these are some of the best books and biographies of Jimi Hendrix.

There are a ton of books out there, so I'll just go over the ones I've personally read and looked at. (I'll also include some middling books, which are okay to read, but not necessarily the most accurate or interesting.) So today, I'm going to go over the best and the worst books about Jimi Hendrix, so you know which ones to read, and which ones to avoid. Some of the best ones are a thrill to read, but some of the worst ones are filled with outright lies. It's a really strange feeling I can feel everything he went through while he was alive on this earth, and heaven knows, he went through an awful lot.īut there are good and bad books about Jimi Hendrix out there. I tend to get too emotional when I read them all the time. I read Jimi Hendrix biographies sometimes, but not too often.
